UPDATE: **SOLD** Was priced at $950.
Someone forwarded this to me, but I don’t know who. I’m guessing this won’t last long. Phone number is in the ad.
“1959 jeep forward.control 170 duel rear wheels,motor frozen,good frame and rusty cab,,,very rare $950.00 no e-mails price is firm so don;t ask me to take less./..”
Don’t see many of those!
This is a rare factory flatbed. Not an aftermarket bed.
Looks like there’s hope for my rusty clunkers I’ve been squirelling away for years!
Blaine, I spoke with the owner … here’s what he said:
it came off a local farm
no title
3-speed
Seized/partially disassembled motor (hasn’t run in 25+years)
fixed flat bead, no dump
body is shot, sitting loose on frame, doors fall off if you open them, glass all bad.
frame is ok by visual inspection
6 whees/flat tires
it will roll
firm on $

Wow! It should go fast even if the motor i frozen. I hope it will find a good hope and will be restored.
This one has sold.

Even with the cold weather, I didn’t think this would last long. Thanks Bill.
We would have found it sooner, had he mentioned “Willys” or “forward control” or “FC” ….. Or anything relative to any search by someone interested in such a vehicle! A friend told me about it the day before you posted it, and I couldn’t find it on CL anywhere. Of course he told me it was NH…. So maybe that was the problem
I don’t mind the cold… We’ll have pics of the adventure to CT on Facebook 😉 Stay tuned!
